That's because the "> /dev/sdb" was parsed and handled by your
user shell (redirection is handled by the shell before running the
command). sudo only got "xzcat
Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-20-1-sda.raw.xz" as arguments. You should be
able to quote what you want actually passed to sudo:
sudo "xzcat Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-20-1-sda.raw.xz > /dev/sdb"
Well, someone on the Fedora team needs to fix the documentation then.
But now it makes sense. I didn't stop to think about the redirect,
since my boss isn't giving me time to think. Apologies for spamming
the list.
